ISLAMABAD:(Report By Javid Iqbal)According to ug news Media Europe,In a fresh apology tendered to the Islamabad High Court (IHC) in a contempt case, former Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) chief judge Rana Muhammad Shamim termed his affidavit — in which allegations of judicial manipulation were levelled against the former chief justice of Pakistan, Saqib Nisar — “wrong and unnecessary.”
Rana, in his fresh apology, solemnly affirmed: “I tender an unconditional apology for an affidavit which was neither correct nor required.”
He maintained that during his more than 30 years of professional life he has always respected both the bar and the bench and could never imagine intentionally scandalising or showing contempt to any judge.

Expressing his regret over the “grave mistake”, the judge said it should never have happened.
“The wrong and incorrect mention of a judge of this honourable court in the affidavit dated 10th Nov 2021 was due to my glaring misunderstanding and unintentional mistake,” said Shamim.
Withdrawing from the contents of the affidavit, the former judge said, “I profusely apologize for the wrong and unnecessary affidavit.”
“I place myself at the mercy of this honourable court,” he added.
